The first time when the sieve files and folders get created, the active symlink is created as a full absolute path
.active_sieve -> /mnt/email/domain/user/_sieve/filters.sieve
After that, if you disable and enable the rule set the symlink gets recreated as relative
.active_sieve -> filters.sieve
How can i have the symlink always created as a relative path even on first time creation? Having a full absolute path over a mounted NSF is fragile.
